HyperWorks
  • What's New

    View new features for HyperWorks 2021.1.

  • Get Started

    Learn the basics and discover the workspace.

  • Video Tutorials

    Discover HyperWorks functionality with interactive tutorials.

  • Manage Files and Data

    Create, open, import, and save models.

  • Sessions and Report Templates

    Set up sessions and create report templates.

  • Interface with External Products

    Solver interfaces supported in HyperWorks.

  • Entities and Solver Interfaces

    A solver interface is made up of a template and a FE-input reader.

  • Model Build and Assembly

    Create, organize and manage parts and subsystems.

    • Manage Parts

    • Manage Subsystems

    • PostgreSQL Installation and Configuration

      Also referred to as Postgres, PostgreSQL is an object-relational database management system with emphasis on extensibility and standards compliance.

    • Section Library

      Use the automotive section library for rapid concept development in the early phases of the vehicle design process.

    • Organize Entities

      Use the Organize tool to move or copy entities into their proper destinations.

    • Match Parts

      Automatically group selected parts into part sets based on comparison method and criteria selected.

    • ID-Management

      Manage all of the IDs for the entities that you create, and define ID ranges for all of the entities in each Include file in relation to the full model in order to avoid ID duplication.

    • Features

      Detect, review, and manage geometric holes, fillets, flanges, and logos.

    • Mechanism Browser

      Create and articulate a kinematic mechanism based on FE mesh using the Mechanism Browser.

    • Model Verification

      Perform automatic checks on CAD models, and identify potential issues with geometry that may slow down the meshing process using the Verification and Comparison tools.

    • Assign Properties, Materials, and Systems

      Define physical and mathematical characteristics of parts.

    • Generate Contacts Automatically

      Use the Auto Contacts tool to determine contact interfaces between selections of components or elements. Based on the user-specified options like proximity tolerance, surface creation method, main surface type, and secondary type, the tool generates contacts based on set segments or node and element combinations.

    • RBE2s, RBE3s, and MPCs
